The love of God is greater farThan tongue or pen can ever tell;It goes beyond the highest star,And reaches to the lowest hell;The guilty pair, bowed down with care,God gave His Son to win;His erring child He reconciled,And pardoned from his sin"For the Love of God" is an instrumental guitar piece by Steve Vai. It is the seventh song 
on Vai's 1990 album Passion and Warfare. The track was voted in a readers' poll of the 100 greatest guitar solos of all time for the magazine Guitar World.[1] The piece, which runs for just over six minutes, features a number of techniques, including whammy bar tricks, two-hand tapping, harmonics and volume swells. Vai recorded it on the fourth day of a 10 day fast because "I do try to push myself into relatively altered states of consciousness. Because in those states you can come up with things that are unique even for yourself"
Vai has performed an arrangement of this piece with The Metropole Orchestra in the Netherlands, a nine minute version of this arrangement can be found on his Sound Theories album.
It is one of the songs in the DLC Guitar Hero Virtuoso Pack, available for Guitar Hero.
